Rehearsal and Orgy Day!

We might be having way too much fun in rehearsals. The month of May is our month to play. We are solidifying the script, exploring our relationships with the help of discussion and Viewpoints, and generally experimenting with as many ideas as possible to make sure what comes out rocks.

Sometimes you gotta let the experiments go waaaay outside the box in order to make something really magical and innovative happen. Luckily for us, we have some incredibly unique personalities contributing to our production and this has allowed for some unique artistic experiences for all. In a good way. For the most part. Maybe?

Well, anyway- the other night was "Orgy Day". Yeah, I said it. Orgy Day. When was the last time you had to block or rehearse an Orgy for a play? Yeah, me either- so that's why we had to take the entire night of rehearsal to make it work, and I believe we are well on our way.

Here are some images from our rehearsal shadow-screen experimentation:

Stage manager extraordinaire came up with this pose. He called it the "Jackhammer." Also at last nights rehearsal after a Viewpoint session with three of our female cast members he described the composition as "Sexy Pinball". This guy is full of gold. We are happy to have you Adrian.

This is just a general action shot with the star of our Orgy at the center of it all- Evan Kendig, playing the role of "Alvie". Lucky Evan.

More action. Lot's of laughs. I think this was the moment Julio started eating Evan. This is a good time to welcome Julio to our cast! We love you Julio and we are so happy to have your hilarity join us! Yay!

This isn't as terrible as it looks. Well...actually, it is. This is our "Human Centipede" part of our Orgy. I'm sure I am making my mother very proud.

That's all for now! A lot of work went into this short part of the play- but sometimes that's what you have to do! We are obviously some very derranged folks, but heck- we love it, and hopefully you will too.

More soon! Maybe even a video if I can figure out this magic computer box thing I'm working on.
